“He is enough of a baal dikduk to help you learn up the Ibn Ezra.” (Weiser)

"Someone told me that he heard from a bochur a baal dikduk that whenever there is a yud after a chyrik – that chyrik is pronounced like the first chyrik in the word “CHYrik”, not like the second one “chyRIK” which is pronounced like a shva." (source)
